21 August: Francis de Sales Quotes

Words of wisdom from Francis de Sales, Bishop of Geneva, born this date in 1567.


  1. Have patience with all things, but, first of all with yourself.
  2. Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength.
  3. Do not wish to be anything but what you are, and try to be that perfectly.
  4. A quarrel between friends, when made up, adds a new tie to friendship.
  5. Half an hour's meditation each day is essential, except when you are busy. Then a full hour is needed.
  6. Have patience to walk with short steps until you have wings to fly.
  7. The Lord delights in every little step you take.
  8. Those who love to be feared fear to be loved, and they themselves are more afraid than anyone, for whereas other men fear only them, they fear everyone.
  9. What we need is a cup of understanding, a barrel of love, and an ocean of patience.
  10. Great occasions for serving God come seldom, but little ones surround us daily.

Closing the Circle

A stable wormhole has been established between Earth and Infinitus. Power Blaster and his friends can finally go home.

Desi Troyes is still at large on Earth - Power Blaster has vowed to bring him to justice. His wedding to Shanna is under threat as the Desperadoes launch an attempt to rescue their leader. 
Someone from Power Blaster's past plays an unexpected and significant role in capturing Troyes.

The return home brings its own challenges. Not everyone can return to the life they left behind, and for some, there is unfinished business to be dealt with before they can start anew.

Ben Cole in particular cannot resume his old life as a surgeon because technology no longer works around him. He plans a new life in Classica, away from technology. Shanna hears there could be a way to reverse his condition and sets out to find it, putting herself in great danger. She doesn't know she is about to uncover the secret of Power Blaster's mysterious past.
